The Tabby Awards judging panel has shortlisted the best apps and games for Android and iPad tablets. Now is the time for tablet users to weigh in.

New York, NY (PRWEB)June 05, 2014

The Tabby Awards, the global competition for the best tablet apps, announces today the Finalists of its 2014 consumer app competition.

Over 200 iPad and Android tablet apps from publishers in 20 countries entered the competition earlier this year.

An international judging panel of independent app professionals and officials from the Entertainment Consumers Association (ECA), reviewed these apps over the past few weeks and rated them across a range of criteria. The selection process, supervised by Christopher Cunningham, tech director of the Huge agency in New York acting as the judging chair, resulted in a short list of 92 finalists.

These finalists are grouped in 8 categories for Android apps and games and 22 categories for iPad apps and games.

Finalist publishers include well-known names such as CBS, Disney, Electronic Arts, Flipboard, Haiku Deck, Morningstar, National Geographic Magazine, Nickelodeon, Prezi, Ravensburger, Rosetta Stone, The Huffington Post, and USA Today, as well as many smaller innovative mobile publishers. Fifteen countries from three continents are represented among these finalists.

The judges will now proceed with a final round and select, in each category, the very best tablet app as a Tabby Awards Winner.

**Introducing the Tabby Awards Users’ Choice**

In parallel to the judges’ assessment, tablet users will have their say. For the first time consumers will be able to vote in each category for their favorite app among the finalists. Consumers can also try any of the finalist apps by downloading them from an app store link at TabbyAwards.com and then cast their vote in that category.
